November 17, 200718 yr I know a pair with brown headband, most likely original flats without packaging went on A'gon for $450 recently. This probably won't help, but used newer RS-1's (not the new new one without wooden buttons) have been going on Head-Fi for ~$500 - $550.
November 17, 200718 yr I can remember a pair on eBay selling for around 600-700. It wasn't mint though: the cable was very twisted. IIRC, Nikongod from Head-Fi bought them.
November 17, 200718 yr Author Just to let everyone know I am not planning to sell these now I just wanted to gauge their current value. I bought them from Larry @ Headphile who said they'd never been used.These aren't just mint condition they're NOS.

November 17, 200718 yr Cool indeed. So where in the world does Larry get all these goodies from? I pretty much think all he does is cruise ebay, search search search, find local listings, etc. I mean if you devote 90% of your time simply to finding rare headphones, I am sure you will be pretty successful.

November 18, 200718 yr and very, very lonely. :'( Company is over rated anyway. I can drink and talk utter bullshit on my own.
November 18, 200718 yr ...and most of us listen to headphones for crying out loud, not exactly the most social of activities.

November 18, 200718 yr Author How about another question? What's the going rate for an unused NOS pair of PS-1's (late serial number 145)?
November 18, 200718 yr How about another question? What's the going rate for an unused NOS pair of PS-1's (late serial number 145)? Jeebus. I suspect you'd be able to get around $2K or more for them, judging from the recent sales on HF and some on eBay.
November 18, 200718 yr How about another question? What's the going rate for an unused NOS pair of PS-1's (late serial number 145)? $1000. Give me your fucking paypal address.
November 18, 200718 yr How about another question? What's the going rate for an unused NOS pair of PS-1's (late serial number 145)? I will buy them for $2700.00. Thank you.
November 18, 200718 yr I've seen ps1s sell for everything between $700 (what I paid) and $2400 (JG2s, on ebay). I'd guess $1800-2200 for true unopened ps1s. But I'm also guessing yours aren't really NOS, but instead, lightly used.
November 18, 200718 yr That's what he gets for acting like a monkey. Damnit, I missed the original post. On a side note, $700 for PS-1? Damn.
November 18, 200718 yr Damnit, I missed the original post. On a side note, $700 for PS-1? Damn. They were in awful shape.
November 18, 200718 yr They were in awful shape. Wait, I think I know which one you bought, at least I do. I remember that thread.
November 18, 200718 yr Wait, I think I know which one you bought, at least I do. I remember that thread. Probably. They were a lot like yours. Goofy beyer headband, cpads that left tacky residue on the cups, dings galore. Got them from an administrator on this board . I may have paid a little more than 700, it's been a long while. But I couldn't resell them later, so I had them made into ps3000s.
November 18, 200718 yr In my defense, mine did not have any dings. Or tack residue for that matter since I figured out a way to secure c-pads without using sticky tacks.
